Android studio support library for androidx


I want to update the implementation 'com.android.support:support-v4:28.0.0' version for androidx. I couldn't find the appropriate migration for it.

Any help would be highly appreciated.


Solution

  • Import your specific packages from this list;

    AndroidX Class Mappings: https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/migrate/class-mappings

    For Support v4: https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/migrate/class-mappings#androidsupportv4

    For AndroidX add to Gradle, implementation "androidx.core:core-ktx:+".

    The "+" at the end of the package in gradle's implementation statement is a regex for the latest stable version available. Number versions can also be used instead of the "+", like; implementation "androidx.core:core-ktx:1.3.2"

    You can check the latest stable, alpha etc builds with release dates on maven here: https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/androidx.core/core-ktx?repo=google
